Cohesity solves your backup and storage problems!
Commenti: We have been very happy. We have eliminated tape backups, eliminated our legacy NAS devices, and added new features we didn't know we would even get at the time we purchased... like O365 backups and AD backups. The engineering team is aggressively working to extend the product to more use cases in the data management realm.
Aspetti positivi:
Cohesity has been a quick and easy win for our department. Setup and installation was quick and we were able to start backing up our VMs and legacy NAS devices. We have been able to eliminate time consuming and costly tapes by replicating our monthly's to a remote Cohesity cluster. In the future we will utilize cloud via Cohesity as well.
Aspetti negativi:
There have been a handful of patches that need to be administered from the command line vs the gui process that normally makes updates a snap.
Cohesity DataProtect an enterprise complete data protection for business
Commenti: We migrated to Cohesity almost four years ago from our legacy backup appliance. We have NEVER regretted the change. Since our migration, the amount of time required to manage and complete backups has dropped significantly. With the ability to have on-prem and cloud solutions working together has allowed protection of both all of my on-prem needs and still protect all of our cloud needs as well."
Aspetti positivi:
Cohesity has been a great benefit in providing our needs around backup, file storage, and cloud services. The ability to protect all my on-prem items (keeping backups on-prem) and all cloud items separately (keeping them in the cloud) has great helped in completely backups in a timely manager and saving large amounts of bandwidth; because I no longer have to pull all cloud items to on-prem solution. Over all one of the greatest benefits of Cohesity has been the fact that they are a true partner. All during the installation, to any support needs (very few), and improvements to their product.
Aspetti negativi:
Very minor, but one item for us that could use improvement is the bare-metal restore. I have only used a couple of times, but a third party app is required. Would be nice if this was all built into Cohesity.
Alternative considerate:
neutral
Commenti: The tool seems like it is in it's infancy - restoring is more difficult than it needs to be and the "instant recovery" seems great in theory, but the vMotion aspect takes way too long to be usable in our capacity.
Aspetti positivi:
support is very helpful for all of the issues that seem to creep up daily.
Aspetti negativi:
There are so many features that we ( and support ) do not seem to know about. IT would be very helpful if these features were easily accessible rather than hidden away. Furthermore we have requested this several times from support and we seem to get back generic documentation rather than insightful feedback. Many of the features are flaky and require constant monitoring / case opening to resolve. We have opened a lot of cases in our timeline thus far... many.

Mark's Cohesity review
Commenti: Over the the Cohesity is a set and forget it solution.
Aspetti positivi:
The easy of setup and use and having in all in one applicance (software and hardware).
Aspetti negativi:
The process for patching the appliance is a little clunky.

Alternative considerate:
Peace of Mind
Commenti: Cohesity has been excellent to work with. The local team is always helpful and responsive, support is excellent, and the product exceeds all expectations. We started small because we were uncertain that they could do all of the things we heard about during the pre-sale process, but we couldn't be happier with the product. We are currently in the process of tripling our capacity and adding additional features because we were so impressed by every aspect of Cohesity.
Aspetti positivi:
Backups were always a pain point for us and required constant attention prior to moving to Cohesity. Cohesity makes backup and recovery simple to manage and requires no attention. It just works. This had freed up resources to focus on improvements to other areas of the business.
Aspetti negativi:
Integration was painless. When we first implemented Cohesity there were some reporting features that were lacking, but each new release has addressed this and we now have access to all of the reports and features that we were missing.
Alternative considerate:
Scalable and high performance back-up solutions and more!
Commenti: Great innovator that really listens, if you provide feedback.
Aspetti positivi:
Being a platform for secondary data opens up a lot of possibilities: back-up of workloads, NAS, applications, but also being target for archive data combines nicely. Additional analytics on data, combined with a great scalable solutions gives everything needed for solving secondary storage challenges.
Aspetti negativi:
Currenlty not supporting complete MS365 stack.

Head and shoulders above the competition
Commenti: We were able to implement greatly reduced backup windows and enhance how many backups we take throughout the day giving us a much better ability to recover and various points.
Aspetti positivi:
Cohesity is an amazing platform that greatly reduced out data management and backup footprint. I really like the ease of use and ability to have one place to go for all of our data protections needs.
Aspetti negativi:
This can be a little difficult to size and configure initially. It can also do a ton of stuff so getting your head around how it works and then be able to move forward with it can take a little time.
Your workload kept safe with Cohesity
Commenti: We have had a very positive experience with the tool. The ability to integrate with multiple virtualization platforms and manage all of them in the same way has been really great. We've been able to retire a nunber of tools as a result and centralize all of our backups using Cohesity.
Aspetti positivi:
What I like best about this software is the easy to navigate web interface. I also like knowing that when I set up a backup schedule it is going to run -- there is no need to go back and check on the status a bunch. The tool has never missed a backup since we started using it and restoring the backup couldn't be easier.
Aspetti negativi:
What we liked least about the software is the cost. Each VM has to be licensed in order to be protected and when you have thousands of VM's the cost can grow exponentially very quickly.
A Great Solution For Data and Security Management
Aspetti positivi:
I like the ease of managing data and data backup with Cohesity The software comes with amazing cyber security features.
Aspetti negativi:
No serious challenges with Cohesity. Always works.
Alternative considerate:
Love my Cohesity!!!!!
Aspetti positivi:
For us the speed/performance of backup and restores was a great feature of Cohesity. My previous backup was not completing on a daily basis; because the backups were taking way to long to completes. I could not backup everything in a 24 hour time period (with multiple appliances running).
Aspetti negativi:
There have been no complaints with Cohesity. We have been very pleased with the product.
IT Specialist
Commenti: It works very fast and functionally in Disaster backup and local bakups. We use it actively in our vmware environment
Aspetti positivi:
An excellent product that responds to us in compliance backup and disaster events
Aspetti negativi:
I'm in the backup expert information service Expert level

Set it and forget it
Commenti: Deployment was easy and getting familiar with the interface was quick. Once the backup policies are set, and VMs associated with policy, it just works.
Aspetti positivi:
Ease of use and the simple interface. Connect Cohesity to vCenter, select VMs to backup, and select the backup schedule.
Aspetti negativi:
I would like it to be less expensive. I am not saying it is not worth the price, just that less expensive would be nice.
Alternative considerate:
Cohesity is a great backup solution that can do much more, and the feature list is growing.
Commenti: We have been very happy with our relationship with Cohesity. The company listens to users and I have seen features I requested added to the product. Reporting used to be a weak point, not it is very good comparatively.
Aspetti positivi:
The software has a nice interface and a very concise dashboard. Backups are completed consistently and we have not had trouble with restores. We also back up OneDrive and Sharepoint data with the software. Support is very good.
Aspetti negativi:
There are a few things which are handled differently from our previous backup software. When restoring a VM you must manually delete the existing VM from vCenter; the old software would do that for you. One approach may not be better than the other, but it did take a bit of sleuthing to figure out why we were getting an error on a VM restore initially.

Efficient and cost effective secondary storage and backup solution
Aspetti positivi:
This product can alone replace your storage array, backup solution and the Disaster recovery solution. Also, it is a compact four node system and has integration with several other vendors like VMware , AWS, Azure etc.
Aspetti negativi:
The KB articles and product documentation can me improved and made more specific and to the point.
It just works.
Commenti: Great! Cohesity has been integral to our ransomware mitigation and backup/disaster recovery systems. It has the added benefit of being able to perform additional stuff like Data Classification and searching.
Aspetti positivi:
It's easy to use and setup, and they help you through the whole process.
Aspetti negativi:
There is one of our VMs that the Cohesity could not index, so we're forced to leave it unindexed. This just means we have to wait for the file list to populate when restoring singular or groups of files from it. Just a minor peeve.
Centralized and Simplified Data Management and Protection
Commenti: Cohesity has greatly improved our data protection from our previous backup solution. Being able to centrally manage and protect our data, as well as the advanced security features to protect from ransomware attack, helps us all sleep better at night.
Aspetti positivi:
A modern data protection solution built with virtualization and cloud in mind and hyperconverged infrastructure. It helps simplify the backup software and hardware into a single solution.
Aspetti negativi:
The reporting is a little basic, although they do have a custom reporting module for more advanced reporting, although that requires developing your own custom reports.

Alternative considerate:
A great solution for so many workloads
Commenti: Overall Cohesity has been one of the best vendors we have ever worked with. Their support team started very small and I usually got the same 2 or 3 customer service reps. Now they are much larger but I still get the 1-on-1 attention I need from their team.
Aspetti positivi:
Cohesity is first a fantastic backup product. We went from four backup solutions to just one. It gives us full off site DR capability by archiving to Azure. We protect many workloads such as VMware, SQL, Office 365 and file shares. Beyond that Cohesity is an amazing platform for test and development, file services and marketplace apps.
Aspetti negativi:
Getting up and running had a few glitches and it took a couple days to fully grasp the dependencies but once those were taken care of it has run very smoothly. Occasionally bugs will surface during new feature releases but I have not had any problems staying on the LTS track.
A solid product with room for improvement
Commenti: Backing up entire VM's through vCenter is a breeze and works well. Application backups (Exchange, SQL, AD) will all require an agent and the agent management is very poor in my opinion. Replication works fine and restore times from locally cached data is quick. There are still a lot of little things that keep this from being a polished solution but the overall product is good.
Aspetti positivi:
Profile creation makes scheduling very easy. Very fast restores from local appliances Excellent deduplication/compressions ratios.
Aspetti negativi:
Agent management is cumbersome and feels like an afterthought. This is my single biggest issue with this application Agent installation application doesn't open necessary firewall ports No centralized credential manager No global options for backup exclusions - have to manually set options for each policy you create Software claims immutable backups, but anyone with admin credentials can delete all data on the appliance. Maybe the term 'immutable' is open for debate, but if I can go in and delete all the data on a protection run, then this does not qualify for immutable in my mind. You can put legal holds on data, but this isn't the same thing.

Cohesity for easy scalable back-ups
Commenti: From a daily basis it really lowered the time we were needed to manage our back-ups. Even when we had issues their support is top of the game and really helpful.
Aspetti positivi:
Cohesity was for us the perfect solution in providing back-up as a service to our customers. It is easy to scale, easy to configure and very easy to manage.
Aspetti negativi:
It was somewhat behind on features compared to the likes of Veeam for example, but they have been implementing the missing features at a rapid pace. They also value feedback a lot so when requesting a missing feature their development team will look into it.
Alternative considerate:
Getting Better All the Time
Aspetti positivi:
Ease of use. The software is fairly straight forward and finding and creating backup policies is has simple has a few clicks. You can customize every aspect of the backup job to get the best possible data retention that meets your SLA.
Aspetti negativi:
The API has a ways to go. It has gotten considerably better over the last year.
Cohesity for NAS
Commenti: Overall we have been able to use the product for NAS. This was our primary objective.
Aspetti positivi:
We love how it is scale-out. This technology is going with current NAS trends. We love having so much redundancy.
Aspetti negativi:
The support was lacking when we did have a problem. The internal teams lacked organization and we experienced delays in help and confusion of internal support.

Cohesity... 18 months later
Commenti: We had so many issue with our old backup tool that I won’t know where to start. Now with Cohesity I can finally spend my time doing something else then firefighting. Also, As a backup administrator, I know that the backup we do every day can be restored quickly in case of issue.
Aspetti positivi:
Our journey with Cohesity started about 18 months ago and we are still so happy with the product. It’s working perfectly, it’s still fast and reliable as from day 1.
Aspetti negativi:
We are waiting for some new features to be added, like cluster support for Windows and RedHat cluster, it’s taking some time.
Alternative considerate:
Not only a protection platform
Commenti: Storage, compression, deduplication, backup and archiving combo like no others.
Aspetti positivi:
Cohesity redefines secondary storage, providing not only for robust, tamper-protected backup and archiving solution, but also allows to consolidate various secondary storage options and devices under single 'pane of glass' management platform. Ability to centrally manage and assign storage shares has been a great addition. Backups and restores also work as a breeze, including amazing capability to run the restored resource from the platform within seconds, without waiting for full restore.
Aspetti negativi:
Somewhat fast release cadence causes a little problems with dependencies and documentation, but that's palatable.
Alternative considerate:
Cohesity bring HCI to backup
Aspetti positivi:
Flexibility. Can use it as backup ,secondary storage, file server, NAS . All-in-one. No more VMs for reporting, media server, master server and so on. Cloud enabled: Can backup to cloud, tier to cloud, DR to cloud and also backup to cloud. And i mean any cloud provider.
Aspetti negativi:
It is not a cheap solution. You need at least 3 nodes. So it is not ok for small size solution.
Alternative considerate:
Look no further
Commenti: Overall experience has been great, no complaints anywhere.
Aspetti positivi:
The visibility of your total foot print and management tools there of saves hours per day.
Aspetti negativi:
Its fast growing company so the update speed is fast. If you are looking for a static software for backups...this is not the one.
